I do feel sympathy for Trump at times because he is being treated unfairly, but I really feel for the old geezers that are going to empty their pockets to give to this dude and wind up ruined.


It's all of them, but yeah, there were more than a few "They're after you, I'm just in the way, send me money" emails. The worst part is that all you have to do is send one person money, then they sell your email. He probably actually subscribed to about 5% of the bullshite he gets, but once they think they've got a mark they sell your email to everyone.

My neighbor just died. He donated to several grifters and his name was sold. We’d have to meet the mailman at the mailbox and take the mail and sort out the grifter shite. Insane headlines on the mail claiming this and that. Had him thinking someone was coming door to door to take his guns.

These people preying on people like him are disgusting.

Our democracy is at risk, you just can't identify the risk.

When you try to usurp election results and convince 40% of America that the election isn't legitimate, that is about as bad as it gets. Or is it?

Attacking schools, government, scientists, religions and the media is the best way to destroy a democracy. Ask history and it will tell you.

He did tell the crowd to go up there "peacefully". Did Trump know Ray Epps and other feds were undercover promoting violence?

Did Trump know the Capital police would simply open the doors and let the unarmed crowds of people into the "PEOPLE'S HOUSE"?

Now, as a billionaire, he wants their money to defend his conduct.

Ridiculous.


If Trump is the nominee he's going to have hardly any money for the General Election. Nearly all of the money sent to him will go towards paying for the legal fees for himself and his friends. Meanwhile, Biden will be spending millions in the swing states making the election a referendum on Trump. And the scary thing is, it will be. But not just on Trump, this will absolutely cripple Republicans in down-ballot races.

If we go through another election cycle where we lose very winnable Senate seats I'm gonna bang my head against the wall. Ohio and Montana should be flips. We'll be lucky to flip 1 of them. And if I were Ted Cruz, I'd be nervous as hell with an anchor like Trump at the top of the ticket in my state.

Is the child support rumor true? Is he seriously using donations to pay for some shithead's child support?

Will you be swayed to vote for his opponent (whoever that might be) at that point because of how much money is in that candidate's coffers?

I doubt anybody who cares enough to post on a political forum is impacted by that.

Swing voters, on the other hand.....

Imagine paying for a multi-billionaire’s legal fund



Trumpsters are so blind, they cannot see the logic in that statement. They will send him the damn mortgage on their house and be homeless in support of a man that don't give a damn about them.

No. I'm simply pointing out that we'll be committing political suicide as a party if Trump is our nominee and we'll likely experience a wipeout in 2024. We will once again leave very winnable races out there because of shitty candidate selection and a very weak candidate at the top of the ticket dragging them down.

I thought he had Billions. Maybe the attorneys are costing more as he is having to beg to get them. He could have prevented two of the three current cases and the one that will likely drop right before the first debate, or maybe right after.

They are paying for Jason Miller's child support/divorce attorney. Was right in the filings.

yes.

He is using it on Jason Miller's laywers in his family law case, so he can fight child support.

100% confirmed.

I thought half of Trump's appeal was that as a billionaire he was self funded? Why does a billionaire need a handout from hard working middle class Americans?
